From the delicate footsteps and subtle expressions of traditional Indian dance comes an evolution in the form of Canada’s own Nova Bhattacharya. Classically trained in Bharatanatyam and skilled in contemporary dance, Bhattacharya dares to bring East and West together in a way that’s purely her own. Four dance pieces come together with the bell- like timbre of Ed Hanley’s tabla in Sleight of Hand, featuring Peggy Baker’s acclaimed Sanctum and three works created in collaboration with Hanley: Unspoken, Related Fragments Remix and their signature piece Maskura.
With The Arden’s intimate On Stage Series, you don’t have to be well-versed in the intricacies of Indian dance to be captivated by this modern-day goddess. When Nova Bhattacharya dances, you’ll feel it.
“Equal parts siren and technical dynamo, the diminutive performer with the burning eyes shows you the soul behind the dance.” –The Globe & Mail
